Lighting Overhaul - Overhauled lighting system.

Great mod, I love the aesthetics of realistic shadows in exploration games like this.

I feel like there needs to be some way to still see deeper into blocks though so you aren't always digging mostly blind though. Maybe you could change flashlights so their light penetrates blocks deeper?

 

I lowered the penetration on ambient light, and will be lowering the penetration on point light. I like not being able to see where ores are, and the Matter Manipulator acts as a sort of scanner already. c:

I might release a separate .modpak without the darkness tweak, but that was half the reason I made the mod in the first place, so it's staying in the main mod. c:

Tried it out with dark and I really like it, though I might play with medium or the default brightness from now on to get the atmospheric effects of those shadows. Great work. This has turned into something really amazing.

 

I personally use medium brightness and no pass-through.

Thanks! c: These last few days have been pretty crazy, getting customization and mod support out. Up late doing the write-ups and repacking so I can have something to send out in the morning and stuff. I didn't expect this to blow up like it has.

 

Tanz's mod doesn't add recipes. Why would you assume your error was caused by Tanz's mod?

 

Ah, shit. Sorry. I'll fix this right away.

Installed the latest version of this mod (1.2.2). Used patches for somepass and frackin' universe. This error occurs repeatedly throughout my starbound log:

[15:47:46.851] Error: Could not apply patch from backend: Main - TanzLO. Caused by: (JsonPatchException) Could not apply patch to base. (JsonPatchException) Could not apply operation to base. (TraversalException) Cannot parse '' as index in Json path "/particleEmitter/particle/light/"

 

Fixed! c:

 

Great job on making the game compatible with fracken! Will we see more mods added over time? Like perhaps the popular race mods Avali and Peglaci?

 

Yup! I'm not a huge fan of using expansive mods such as those, though. So mod support is added upon request. c:

I used your point light edits in my Ore Plants mod. I hope you don't mind. I added a credit on the front page.

Any chance you'd add support for the lighting decors in http://community.playstarbound.com/threads/pixel-goods-store.68147/page-16#post-2373976?

That'd be pretty cool. And thanks for making a mod I consider essential. Having a patch for FU already is pretty nice too. Thanks.
